NOTICE: Comply with all cautions and safety-related notes

located on or inside the cover case and on the chassis or plasma

module.

WARNING: Since the chassis of this receiver is connected to

one side of the AC power supply during operation, whenever the

receiver is plugged in service should not be attempted by any-

one unfamiliar with the precautions necessary when working on

this type of receiver.

1. When service is required, an isolation transformer should be

inserted between power line and the receiver before any

service is performed on a “HOT” chassis receiver.

2. When replacing a chassis in the receiver, all the protective

devices must be put back in place, such as barriers, non-

metallic knobs, insulating cover-shields, and isolation

resistors, capacitors, etc.

3. When service is required, observe the original lead dress.

4. Always use manufacturer’s replacement components. Critical

components as indicated on the circuit diagram should not be

replaced by another manufacturer’s. Furthermore, where a

short circuit has occurred, replace those components that

indicate evidence of over heating.

5. Before returning a serviced receiver to the customer, the

service technician must thoroughly test the unit to be certain

that it is completely safe to operate without danger of electrical

shock, and be sure that no protective device built into the

receiver by the manufacturer has become defective, or

inadvertently defeated during servicing.

Therefore, the following checks should be performed for the

continued protection of the customer and service technician.

Leakage Current Cold Check

With the AC plug removed from the 120V AC 60Hz source,

place a jumper across Line 1 and Line 2 of the three plug

prongs, do not connect with the third prong, which is physical

ground.

Using an insulation tester (DC500V), connect one of its leads

to the AC plug jumper and touch with the other lead each

exposed metal part (antennas, screwheads, metal overlays,

control shafts, etc.), particularly any exposed metal part

having a return path to the chassis should have a resistor

reading over 4MΩ. Any resistance value below this range

indicates an abnormality which requires corrective action. An

exposed metal part not having a return path to the chassis will

indicate an open circuit.

tester or a metering system that complies with the American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.0 Leakage Current

for Appliances. In the case of the PDP monitor set the AC

switch first in the ON position and then in the OFF position,

measure from across Line 1 and Line 2 of the three plug

prongs, do not connect with the third prong, which is physical

ground, to all exposed metal parts of the instrument

(antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screw heads,

metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed

metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis.

Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 MIU. Reverse the

instrument power cord plug in the outlet and repeat test.

PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE

Many electrical and mechanical parts in HITACHI television

receivers have special safety-related characteristics. These are

often not evident from visual inspection nor can the protection

afforded by them necessarily be obtained by using replacement

components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement

parts which have these special safety characteristics are

identified in this Service Manual.

Electrical components having such features are identified with a

mark in the schematics and parts list in this Service Manual.

The use of a substitute replacement component which does not

have the same safety characteristics as the HITACHI-

recommended replacement component, shown in the parts list in

this Service Manual, may create shock, fire, X-radiation, or other

hazards.

Product safety is continuously under review and new instructions

are issued from time to time. For the latest information, always

consult the current HITACHI Service Manual. A subscription to,

or additional copies of HITACHI Service Manuals may be

obtained at a nominal charge from HITACHI Sales Corporation.

1. Follow the general caution recommendations from “Safety

precautions” section.

42HDS69/HDT79/HDX99 - Plasma Monitor Unit

55HDS69/HDT79/HDX99 - Plasma Monitor Unit

1. Follow the general caution recommendations from “Safety

precautions” section.

2. Since the Panel module and front filter are made of glass,

sufficient care shall be taken when handling the broken

module and filter in order to avoid injury.

3. If necessary to replace Panel module, this work must be

started after the panel module and the AC/DC Power supply

becomes sufficiently cool.

4. Special care must be taken with the display area to avoid

damaging its surface.

5. The Panel Module shall not be touched with bare hands to

protect its surface from stains.

6. It is recommended to use clean soft gloves during the

replacing work of the Panel module in order to protect, not

only the display area of the panel module but also the

serviceman.

7. The Chip Tube of the panel module (located upper left of the

back of the panel module) and flexible cables connecting

Panel glasses to the drive circuitry Printed Wiring Boards

(P.W.B.) are very weak, so sufficient care must be taken to

prevent breaking or cutting any of these. If the Chip Tube

breaks the panel module will never work, replacement for a

new plasma panel module will be needed.

8. AV Digital Block, power supply and PDP driving circuit

P.W.B.’s are assembled on the rear side of the PDP module,

take special care with this fragile circuitry; particularly, Flexible

Printed Circuits bonded to surrounding edges of the glass

panel. They are not strong enough to withstand harsh outer

mechanical forces. Avoid touching the flexible printed circuits

by not only your hands, but also tools, chassis, or any other

object. Extreme bending of the connectors must be avoided

too. In case the flexible printed circuits are damaged, the

corresponding addressed portions of the screen will not be lit

and exchange of a glass panel will be required.

PDP Module Handling

When there is need to replace a broken PDP module which is the

displaying device from the Plasma monitor unit, consider the

following:

1. When carrying the PDP module, two persons should stand at

both shorter-edge sides of the glass-panel and transport it with

their palms. Avoid touching the Flexible Printed Circuits or the

chip tube on the corner of the glass-panel. Handle only by the

surface of the glass panel. In case of some PDP modules,

electrode repair is done by connecting between regular

terminal with Cu tape and Cu wire. Please do not hook and/or

damage this repair line. If it is damaged, the module will not

function unless the glass-panel is exchanged with a new

glass-panel.

2. When carrying PDP module, watch surrounding objects, such

as tables, and also do not carry it alone since it may be

dangerous and it will be damaged due to excessive stress to

the module (glass-panel).

3. Please do not stand the module with the edge of the glass-

panel on the table since this might result in damage to the

glass-panel and/or flexible printed circuits due to excessive

stress to the module (glass-panel).

WARNING

Lead in solder used in this product is listed by the California

Health and Welfare agency as a known reproductive toxicant

which may cause birth defects or other reproductive harm

(California Health and Safety Code, Section 25249.5).

When servicing or handling circuit boards and other components

which contain lead in solder, avoid unprotected skin contact with

solder. Also, when soldering make sure you are in a well

ventilated area in order to avoid inhalation of any smoke or

fumes released.

CAUTION: Before servicing instruments covered by this

service data and its supplements and addenda, read and

follow the “Important Safety Instructions” on page 3 of this

publication.

NOTE: If unforeseen circumstances create conflict between

the following servicing precautions and any of the safety

precautions on page 3 of this publication, always follow the

safety precautions. Remember: Safety First.

General Servicing Guidelines

1. Always unplug the instrument AC power cord from the AC

power source before:

a. Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit

board, module, or any other instrument assembly.

b. Disconnecting or reconnecting any instrument

electrical plug or other electrical connection.

c. Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an

electrolytic capacitor in the instrument.

CAUTION: A wrong part substitution or incorrect

polarity installation of electrolytic

capacitors may result in an explosion

hazard.

2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this instrument or any

of its assemblies.

3. Unless specified otherwise in these service data, clean

electrical contacts by applying the following mixture to the

contacts with a pipe cleaner, cotton-tipped stick or

comparable nonabrasive applicator: 10% (by volume)

Acetone and 90% (by volume) isopropyl alcohol (90%-

99% strength).

CAUTION: This is a flammable mixture. Unless

specified otherwise in these service data,

lubrication of contacts is not required.

4. Do not defeat any plug/socket of voltage interlocks with

which instruments covered by this service data might be

equipped.

5. Do not apply AC power to this instrument and/or any of its

electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat-

sinks are correctly installed.

6. Always connect the test instrument ground lead to the

appropriate instrument chassis ground before connecting

the test instrument positive lead. Always remove the test

instrument ground lead last.

7. Use with this instrument only the test fixtures specified in

this service data.

CAUTION: Do not connect the test fixture ground strap

to any heatsink in this instrument.

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged

easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are

called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of

typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-

effect transistors and semiconductor “chip” components. The

following techniques should be used to help reduce the

incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor

component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain

off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a

known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a

commercially available discharging wrist strap device,

which should be removed for potential shock reasons

prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES

devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface

such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge

buildup or exposure of the assembly.

3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or

desolder ES devices.

4. Use only an anti-static type solder removal device. Some

solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static” can

generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES

device.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can

generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES

devices.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its

protective package until immediately before you are

ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are

packaged with leads electrically shorted together by

conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive

material.)

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from

the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the

protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into

which the device will be installed.

CAUTION: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or

circuit, and observe all other safety

precautions.

8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged

replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion

such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the

lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate

static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)

General Soldering Guidelines

1. Use a grounded-tip, low-wattage soldering iron and

appropriate tip size and shape that will maintain tip

temperature within the range 500°F to 600°F.

2. Use an appropriate lead free solder (see page 8). Lead

solder can be used, but there is a possibility of failure due

to insufficient strength of the solder.

3. Keep the soldering iron tip clean and well-tinned.

4. Thoroughly clean the surfaces to be soldered. Use a

small wire-bristle (0.5 inch or 1.25 cm) brush with a metal

handle. Do not use freon-propelled spray-on cleaners.

5. Use the following desoldering technique.

a. Allow the soldering iron tip to reach normal

temperature (500°F to 600°F).

b. Heat the component lead until the solder melts.

Quickly draw away the melted solder with an anti-

static, suction-type solder removal device or with

solder braid.

CAUTION: Work quickly to avoid overheating the

circuit board printed foil.

6. Use the following soldering technique.

a. Allow the soldering iron tip to reach normal

temperature (500°F to 600°F).

b. First, hold the soldering iron tip and solder strand

against the component lead until the solder melts.

c. Quickly move the soldering iron tip to the junction of

the component lead and the printed circuit foil, and

hold it there only until the solder flows onto and

around both the component lead and the foil.

CAUTION: Work quickly to avoid overheating the

circuit board printed foil or components.

d. Closely inspect the solder area and remove any

excess or splashed solder with a small wire-bristle

brush.

Removal

1. Desolder and straighten each IC lead in one operation by

gently prying up on the lead with the soldering iron tip as

the solder melts.

2. Draw away the melted solder with an anti-static suction-

type solder removal device (or with solder braid) before

removing the IC.

Replacement

1. Carefully insert the replacement IC in the circuit board.

2. Carefully bend each IC lead against the circuit foil pad

and solder it.

3. Clean the soldered areas with a small wire-bristle brush.

(It is not necessary to reapply acrylic coating to areas.)

“Small-signal” Discrete Transistor Removal/Replacement

1. Remove the defective transistor by clipping its leads as

close as possible to the component body.

2. Bend into a “U” shape the end of each of the three leads

remaining on the circuit board.

3. Bend into a “U” shape the replacement transistor leads.

4. Connect the replacement transistor leads to the

corresponding leads extending from the circuit board and

crimp the “U” with long nose pliers to insure metal to

metal contact, then solder each connection.

Power Output Transistor Devices Removal/Replacements

1. Heat and remove all solder from around the transistor

leads.

2. Remove the heatsink mounting screw (if so equipped).

3. Carefully remove the transistor from the circuit board.

4. Insert new transistor in circuit board.

5. Solder each transistor lead, and clip off excess lead.

6. Replace heatsink.

Diode Removal/Replacement

1. Remove defective diode by clipping its leads as close as

possible to diode body.

2. Bend the two remaining leads perpendicularly to the

circuit board.

3. Observing diode polarity, wrap each lead of the new

diode around the corresponding lead on the circuit board.

4. Securely crimp each connection and solder it.

5. Inspect (on the circuit board copper side) the solder joints

of the two “original leads”. If they are not shiny, reheat

them and, if necessary, apply additional solder.

Use Soldering Iron to Pry Leads

IC Removal/Replacement

Some Hitachi unitized chassis circuit boards have slotted

holes (oblong) through which the IC leads are inserted and

then bent flat against the circuit foil. When holes are the

slotted type, the following technique should be used to

remove and replace the IC. When working with boards using

the familiar round hole, use the standard technique as

outlined in paragraphs 5 and 6 above.

5

DW2U

Fuses and Conventional Resistor Removal/Replacement

1. Clip each fuse or resistor lead at top of circuit board

hollow stake.

2. Securely crimp leads of replacement component around

stake 1/8 inch from top.

3. Solder the connections.

CAUTION: Maintain original spacing between the

replaced component and adjacent

components and the circuit board, to

prevent excessive component

temperatures.

Circuit Board Foil Repair

Excessive heat applied to the copper foil of any printed

circuit board will weaken the adhesive that bonds the foil to

the circuit board, causing the foil to separate from, or “lift-

off,” the board. The following guidelines and procedures

should be followed whenever this condition is encountered.

In Critical Copper Pattern Areas

High component/copper pattern density and/or special

voltage/current characteristics make the spacing and

integrity of copper pattern in some circuit board areas more

critical than in others. The circuit foil in these areas is

designated as Critical Copper Pattern. Because Critical

Copper Pattern requires special soldering techniques to

ensure the maintenance of reliability and safety standards,

contact your Hitachi personnel.

At IC Connections

To repair defective copper pattern at IC connections, use the

following procedure to install a jumper wire on the copper

pattern side of the circuit board. (Use this technique only on

IC connections.)

1. Carefully remove the damaged copper pattern with a

sharp knife. (Remove only as much copper as absolutely

necessary.)

2. Carefully scratch away the solder resist and acrylic

coating (if used) from the end of the remaining copper

pattern.

3. Bend a small “U” in one end of a small-gauge jumper wire

and carefully crimp it around the IC pin. Solder the IC

connection.

4. Route the jumper wire along the path of the cut-away

copper pattern and let it overlap the previously scraped

end of the good copper pattern. Solder the overlapped

area, and clip off any excess jumper wire.

1. Remove the defective copper pattern with a sharp knife.

Remove at least 1/4 inch of copper, to ensure hazardous

condition will not exist if the jumper wire opens.

2. Trace along the copper pattern from both wire sides of

the pattern break and locate the nearest component

directly connected to the affected copper pattern.

3. Connect insulated 20-gauge jumper wire from the

nearest component on one side of the pattern break to

the lead of the nearest component on the other side.

Carefully crimp and solder the connections.

CAUTION: Be sure the insulated jumper wire is

dressed so that it does not touch

components or sharp edges.

RESISTOR

Leadless Chip Components

(surface mount)

Chip components must be replaced with identical

chips due to critical foil track spacing. There are no

holes in the board to mount standard transistors or

diodes. Some chip capacitor or resistor board solder

pads may have holes through the board, however the

hole diameter limits standard resistor replacement to

1/8 watt. Standard capacitors may also be limited for

the same reason. It is recommended that identical

chip components be used. .

Chip resistors have a three digit numerical resistance

code -1st and 2nd significant digits and a multiplier.

Example: 162 = 1600 or 1.6KΩ resistor, 0 = 0Ω

(jumper).

Chip capacitors generally do not have the value

indicated on the capacitor. The color of the component

indicates the general range of the capacitance.

Chip transistors are identified by a two letter code. The

first letter indicates the type and the second letter, the

grade of transistor.

Chip diodes have a two letter identification code as

per the code chart and are a dual diode pack with

either

common anode or common cathode. Check the parts

list for correct diode number.

Component Removal

1. Use solder wick to remove solder from component

end caps or terminals.

2. Without pulling up, carefully twist the component

with tweezers to break the adhesive.

3. Do not reuse removed leadless or chip

components since they are subject to stress

fracture during removal .

Chip Component Installation

1. Put a small amount of solder on the board

soldering pads.

2. Hold the chip component against the soldering

pads with tweezers or with a miniature alligator

clip and apply heat to the pad area with a 30 watt

iron until solder flows. Do not apply heat for more

than 3 seconds

How to Replace Flat-lC

—Required Tools—

• Soldering iron • iron wire or small awl

• De-solder braids • Magnifier

1. Remove the solder from all of the pins of a Flat-lC

by using a de-solder braid.

2. Put the iron wire under the pins of the Flat-lC and

pull it in the direction indicated while heating the

pins using a soldering iron. A small awl can be

used instead of the iron wire.

3. Remove the solder from all of the pads of the

Fiat-lC by using

a de-solder braid.

4. Position the new Flat-lC in place (apply the pins of

the Flat-lC to the soldering pads where the pins

need to be soldered). Properly

determine the positions of the

soldering pads and pins by

correctly aligning the polarity

symbol.

6. Check with a magnifier for solder bridge between

the pins or for dry joint between pins and soldering

pads. To remove a solder bridge, use a de-solder

braid as shown in the figure below.

NOTE: These components are affixed with glue. Be careful not to break or damage any foil under the

component or at the pins of the ICs when removing. Usually applying heat to the component for a short

time while twisting with tweezers will break the component loose.
